Here's a discussion from earlier in the month:

No, not really. A little badge won't be seen. At worst, it'll be seen by bystanders as impersonation of someone in position of some authority, which you're not (unless a LEO).
Your firearm will be seen by the incoming cavalry, though, and that's enough to get you placed face down and separated from your weapon until it can be sorted out who's who. Once they arrive, they're driving the situation.
In a lethal force situation, expect to be bound and trussed by the responding officers. You're not law enforcement and not in uniform, so expect that. Ideally, though, you've got someone on the phone speaking with 911 and out there to meet/greet the cavalry, so that you're not unceremoniously poked full of holes as you're holding the BG at bay.
As I haven't yet had to hold a BG at bay to await incoming LEO's, perhaps some of the LEO's on the forum can fill in the rest of the expectations, here.
